THE ASSCLOWN AWARD

Don’t insult me like that.  Yes, I am a Patriots fan, but my knowledge of football vastly exceeds his.

And for the record.  I agree that point differential and PPG stat show the dolphins are playing better than record and have a legit chance at making the playoffs.  3rd down defense is a stat that does nothing for me.

They certainly have a legit shot at the playoffs this year.

The close losses are not something to be happy about, they are something to be concerned about and something hopefully to find solutions for. 

I do not buy this rebuilding stuff.  The Dolphins have been at this for years. 

I think my knowledge of football is far greater than most of you want to admit.

I am not being negative, I am being skeptical for now.

If they do make the playoffs, I will be delighted.

The road is certainly going to be hard to the playoffs.

So...was Miami lucky or unlucky to have faced the 49ers when SF had their practice squad active? Push for playoffs? or push for better draft pick?

Your football opinions are about the best example of Dunning–Kruger one can find.

I didn’t watch it.  Purpose of the debates is to help undecided voters make up their minds.   My ballot has already been delivered to the town hall.

I use the Dunning–Kruger effect charts constantly when evaluating programmers.

If you haven't ever been at the peak of mount stupid and through the valley of despair, you aren't a senior developer.

Well, to try and get this thread back on track, if you watched the Seattle v. Arizona game last night you have to be impressed with how Arizona played. It's probably the first time I watched one of their games in a couple years, but Kyler Murray played fantastic.  Great receivers.  Edmunds ran the ball great after Drake went out with an injured ankle.  Miami has Az after AZ comes back from a bye in two weeks and I think it will be a true test for how good Miami's defense is.

Dolphins currently have the 3rd fewest points allowed in the NFL. The two teams ahead are Baltimore and Pittsburgh but we played one more game than them. Pittsburgh is unlikely to give up enough points tomorrow for us to catch them but the Ravens only lead us by 10 so very likely we pass them for the 2nd spot whenever that game is played.

Get a few more weapons on offense and we are looking good for 2021.

Xavian is just toying with this QBs out there. He baits them to pass and then just keeps making picks.

At this pace, it isn't crazy that he finishes with 11+ picks this year.

At what point does he start getting DPOY votes? Are we already there?

Last year's DPOY had 6 INTs for the season, so yeah I'd say we're there.

Like his years in Dallas, QBs aren't even throwing to Byron's side so he doesn't have the lofty INT totals but he's doing his job.
